As I said, I'm not ready to call Palin a Dominionist. The fact that she belongs to a Dominionist church isn't sufficient evidence. There are many reasons for belonging to a church. Many people belong to churches for social reasons without agreeing with everything that's taught by them. Her membership in the church raises questions, but it doesn't answer them.
I am not
completely convinced that Bush is a Dominionist, either, but if that was the reason, or part of the reason, for the ill-advised and self-destructive invasion of Iraq, then you have your answer as to how it affects policy.
